Gabe Klein of the Joint Office of Energy and Transport points out that DC fast charger uptime is maybe only 70%, which is not acceptable! Reliability and resiliency are the most important issues to work on.

Neha Palmer of Terawatt Infrastructure and Patrick Bydume of Blackrock agree that planning, permitting, zoning and approvals are going to be the hardest challenges for the next phase of charging infra deployment.

Liane Randolph thinks hitting EV adoption targets is very doable, but that California's goal of reducing vehicle miles travelled by 15% by 2050 will be hard, requiring investments in transit, bringing housing and jobs closer together, and investment into active mobility.

Chelsea Sexton said that there needs to be a real focus on dealerships and customer awareness, now that model availability is going up. The customer experience is going to need a lot of attention, as will charging reliability. .

Mary Nicholls said the next big challenge is actually getting IRA money deployed - getting the applications done, getting implementation started - and that communities will need focused support with this.

Some interesting takeaways on the next phase of EV adoption from day one of the BNEF Summit in San Francisco:.

The EU's response to the IRA will allow member states to introduce tax credits, get rid of open tenders for less mature technologies, and loosen rules for subsidizing green technologies.

Too many individuals @BloombergNEF to thank - this report is such a huge team effort. Shout-out to some of the folks I know are here on Twitter: @meredith_annex @CoreyBCantor @jp_attwood @MarkDaly74 @YayoiSekine @tenglermartin and too many more amazing colleagues!.

And the press release, with link to the report, here:.

Check out @NatBullard's excellent column on the findings:.

We're still far from the investment levels needed to get to net zero, but energy transition investment has doubled since pre-pandemic times, and there's no reason it can't double again in the next few years - and again, and again!.

Climate-tech companies raised $119 billion in new equity last year. This was a down year due to the turmoil in public markets, but the VC/PE portion of this was surprisingly up 3%.

In addition, $79 bilion was invested in clean energy manufacturing facilities last year - a new high. The battery value chain dominates this total, but PV, wind and hydrogen manufacturing plants also contributed.
